When the aliens came down and told us they’d enslave all of the human race if we didn’t send our bigliest warrior to participate in their arena death games, I laughed at them. It was really funny because they obviously didn’t know who they were dealing with. Know what I mean? Then they said they would pick the greatest warrior, and they picked Marc Havak. He seemed like such an average guy, but he was a true-blue American. He even worked as a truck driver! That’s the kind of good guy we want defending us from aliens.

Gryff never knew he was the most powerful summoner in the world until a rogue monster attacked his village. Now he's been recruited into the top magical academy, beautiful women are breaking down his dorm-room door, and the headmaster has big, big plans for him.

Terrence Mack was born poor, grew up tough, and died hard. Waking up in a sea cave with nothing but the clothes on his back and a new bullet scar was enough to convince him that wherever his death had brought him, it wasn't paradise. His new world quickly proves to be a place of danger, magic, monsters, and - for Terry at least - women. Known on Celestine as a template, Terry's genes are key to the survival of the eldritch races. But the fiercely competitive eldritch don't typically leave their lovers alive long, and aren't accustomed to taking 'no' for an answer.

Who wants to be a superhero? Hope did, but she grew out of it. Which made her superhuman breakthrough in the Ashland Bombing, just before starting her freshman year at the University of Chicago, more than a little ironic. And now she has some decisions to make. Given the code-name "Astra" and invited to join the Sentinels, Chicago's premier super-team, will she take up the cape and mask and become a career superhero? Or will she get a handle on her new powers (superstrength has some serious drawbacks) and then get on with her life plan?

Right from the Silver Age!

That headline is a compliment. The Golden Age of comics was a time of introduction and establishment of characters. The Silver Age is when they became innovative and experimental with characters and storylines. This novel feels like it is set in that era, a time when comics were fun and exciting, the art was fresh and experimental, and the characters weren't always heroes. Plexico has captured that sensibility and poured it into this book. The ride is fun, exciting, and fresh, even though it is nostalgic as all get out.

This is a real David vs Goliath story, as we are introduced to the Warlord; a mindbending ruler who has decided to enslave the populace of Earth. Who steps in? Some newbie heroes who really are still wet behind the ears but have high ideals and the belief that they need to stop the Warlord no matter the cost.

The heroes are fun and they do take you back to a point where you feel like you are seeing the Avengers or Justice League form. One really great thing is that you never really feel like the heroes have their win in the bag, and it really is possible that the bad guy can win. This isn't Marvel or DC after all. This is a free range universe in which anything can happen, anyone can live and anyone can die.

Pete Milan is ok as the narrator. There were a few points tha the seemed to slightly pause mid-sentence, but otherwise he was highly enjoyable. Even though I did receive a promo code for this review it in no way influenced my considerations of the material, and in fact, inspired me to be more honest. In fact, getting a code generally makes me harsher as a reviewer as I am more often concerned what someone like Me will decide based on my review.

If you are a fan of comic books, or have just jumped onto the superhero movie bandwagon, then this is a a book you will cherish!!!! I cannot wait to see what happenes next, and I know that you will too. Get this book and relive your childhood, or at the very least have one heck of a time with this band of Supers as they struggle against an overlord that they really have no right to be fighting.

If this review helped, please press the YES below. Thank you immensely!!!
